We Congratulate Nir Barkat who won a convincing victory in the race for Mayor of Jerusalem.

Mr. Barkat ran on a platform of expanding the Jewish presence in the Eastern part of the City, and pledged to keep Jerusalem united.

Throughout the campaign, Mr. Barkat demonstrated that he understands the economic and social problems that Jerusalem must solve for the city is to become a desirable place for businesses and families to come and prosper. During the years that he served on Jerusalem's legislative counsel, Mr. Barkat developed ideas to improve the quality of life in the city.

Now his challenge is to take the mandate he received from the citizens of Jerusalem, and use it to chart a new course for the Holy City.

The One Jerusalem Family stands ready to assist Mayor Barkat in any way it can.

Here is a short video of Mr. Barkat giving his victory address to his supporters.
